PE7: Project Presets missing

I searched for previous threads on this topic and performed the recommended steps to fix it:
1. Tried reinstall>restart.
2. Tried uninstall>restart>cleanup>restart>install>restart
3. Deleted pref file and forced PE7 to create a new one.
None of the above steps helped. The project presets are still missing when I try to create a new project. I am forced to stick with 'DV NTSC Standard 48khz'. Can someone help me with this? Maybe someone can upload their presets in a zipped file and tell me where I should unzip them in my PE7 install structure.
Windows XP SP3, Pentium 4 processor, 1GB RAM.

Hi Bill,

Premiere Elements 7 missing project settings...
17. Sep 11, 2009 2:25 PM in response to: (Jeff_Fabiani)
Re: Premiere Elements 7 missing project settings...
See the last post on this.
Hi all,
There is an even easier way to do this - avoiding the installation and all
that... Just follow the steps below:
1) Download the Premiere Elements 7 trial version from adobe.com (or even
better - I have attached the file to this post)
2) Run the extractor but cancel the install-process. Now all installation
files are extracted in a folder. In my case I extracted to "\desktop\Adobe
Premiere Elements 7"
3) Open the folder '\Adobe Premiere Elements 7\CoreTemplates' with in the
folder you extracted to.
4) Extract the file 'settings.zip' to a folder of your choice
5) Now copy the folder (and subfolders) with the same language code of your
PRE7 installation (In my case I copied the 'en_US' folder) into the Adobe
program folder in a subfolder you name 'Settings'. (In my case running a
danish windows the path is 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements
7.0\Settings'
When finish you shold have a folder called 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe
Premiere Elements 7.0\Settings\en_US' with subfolders..
And voila - settings is back in the startup window...
/cyberiote
Hope this clears things up.

Project Presets now 'missing' following un/re-install CS4 Prem Pro

A few glitches were hampering me so, tried and tested, I uninstalled and re-installed the WHOLE CS4 Prem Pro. Now, a big handful of Project Presets are missing. I'm now using v. nice HD footage/files and want to utilize their size and defenition. What's happened to my missing Project Presets please? Using PC with 64-Bit Windows Home 7.

Did you use Cleaner Tool before re-installing?

Premiere CC presets missing and Can't Open Sequence error

I'm having a couple problems with Premiere.
I was working on a project that's been just fine for a while, but now when I try to open it, Premiere gives the error:
"This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
Also, in any project when I'm creating a new sequence, there are no useful presets. I found the sequence presets folder, and they're all in there, but they don't show up from within Premiere.
Also, when I import AVCHD .MTS files, I get video but no audio, even though they play ok in VLC
Solutions I have tried but which do not solve anything:
1. Sign out, restart Premiere, sign back in
2. Recreate the Adobe Premiere Pro preferences and plug-in cache. (using shift/option combo)
3. uninstall premiere, reboot, run cleaner script, reboot, reinstall premiere
4. uninstall premiere, reboot, run cleaner script, reboot, create new user account, install premiere in that user account instead of original account
I am aware of this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/features-presets-missing-premiere-pro.html
and this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
Some pages I've come across have suggested running the cleaner script multiple times, but you can really only run it once, because after the first cleaning, when you run it again nothing shows up on the list to be cleaned. Are there still remnants of Adobe stuff left on my machine uncleaned by the cleaner script that I need to delete manually?
Has anyone else had this problem but not had any of the adobe-suggested solutions work for them and eventually fixed this?
This is Adobe Premiere CC 2014. I'm running it on a Mac Book Pro that's less than a year old, running OSX 10.9.5 w/ 16GB of memory.
This is INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING. I've spent most of the day troubleshooting this issue and all I want to do is edit my video. A cursory search of the internet shows that I am far from alone in having this problem. Also, reinstalling is not trivial because the download speeds where I am are slow.

Well, it took a long time, but I eventually got it working properly. All of the presets and codecs show up, I can import AVCHD files properly with audio, and the project I couldn't open before now opens fine, so it turned out not to be a corrupt project. It looks like the problem was that the cleaner script didn't actually clean everything it should have, and I had to do it all manually.
I uninstalled all of the Adobe Creative Cloud software, rebooted, ran the CC Cleanup script, and rebooted again.
Then I uninstalled Flash and ALL other Adobe software I had on my machine.
Then I used the Find Any File app to find every reference on my Mac to any file with "adobe" in the name--including system files--and deleted them and emptied the trash.
The only Adobe things I left on my machine were the Adobe RGB color profile and any Adobe fonts I had.
Empty the trash again, reboot again.
Then I used the CC installer to install Premiere and only Premiere (I didn't even install Adobe Media Encoder) because I didn't want to go through all that download time only to have it fail on me again.
And at long last it worked. Then I went back and installed Media Encoder, which didn't seem to break anything, so I went back and installed the other CC software I wanted on my machine, and things are working at last.
The "cleaner" script leaves a LOT of Creative Cloud-related files on your machine, which, in my opinion, means it's not a very effective "cleaner." It seems to want to leave a lot of preference files and other files whose purpose I don't know (but I deleted them anyway). There should at least be a checkbox somewhere on the cleaner that says "wipe absolutely everything related to Adobe off of my machine".
Thanks again for your suggestions, Neil.

I am trying to determine the new project preset for a multi-camera video shot as follows: 3 Canon camcorders,
Main shot is DV (tape) (720x480, 29fps) - ceremony and reception
b-roll is DVD (mini-disk) (720x480, 29fps) - bride preparations
additional b-roll is AVCHD (1920x1080, 29fps) - groom preparations and misc all day ceremony and reception.
Film is from a wedding, DV contains main footage so I assume it will need to be the base. I am planning to use the preset for DV-Widescreen. Is there a better option? I'm concerned about playback as the three appear to have different PAR. I'm using Premiere Elements 10 on W8.
Ultimately this will be burned for two formats - one for a DVD that can be watched on a widescreen TV, second for a short clip trailer to go on vimeo.
(And no I won't be doing this again for a wedding that I shoot.)

VDRAVES
Please review since I am not sure how you obtained Video 3 tall when you scaled Video 3 with Constrain Proportions in effect.
Before
After
It becomes a zoomed in effect to get rid of the black borders. But, there is no tall and thin involved anywhere.
And, after the Scale increase, you can always click on the screen and move the image around a bit
(without overdoing it to get black borders again).
After and an adjust
Please let us know if you are OK with the information above.
Thank you.

How to create a custom Project Preset Premiere Elements 9?

Hi,
In the help documentation of Premiere Elements 9 it says that i can create a new Project Preset: "The procedure for creating a preset differs if you’re changing settings for an open project versus establishing settings for a new project. Presets you create can be applied to new projects, and if you want to back up or distribute preset files, you can find them in the Settings subfolder of the Adobe Premiere Elements folder on your hard disk." (url).
Sadly, i can't find the specific instructions that would help me to establish settings for a new project and save it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

HELP I chose SD project preset instead of source material's HD and I have finished editing, can I change this?

So I have been working on this music video for a long time. I finished yesterday and today I tried to export the video. It had this strange black box around it and the quality was bad.
A little digging showed that the whole time my project presets were for some reason 640x480 SD instead of the 1920x1080 HD of my source video clips, so even if I tried to export in 16:9 HD, stretched 4:3 SD was the maximum quality I could get! The editing is very complex with lots of quick cuts, so there's no way I'm re-doing the whole thing, and I've already tried copying and pasting everything in the timeline to another project with the correct presets, and that doesn't work. Is there ANY way to fix this situation? I'm not too worried about transitions, if I lose those in the process it wouldn't really matter, but I want to save all my quick timed cuts between clips. I am using Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 64-bit. The source material is AVCHD 1920x1080p and a mix of 30p and 60p, and I want the final video to be the same but all 30p.
Thanks for reading and I really hope to solve this issue,
Ben.

Ben
Thanks for the update. Sorry that the new project was necessary. You did well making the transition from problem project to new.
However, you may have gotten into some trouble with your export settings. But, at least that can be corrected in the export of the new project and should not require starting from the beginning in yet another project. I am suspecting that your export is 1920 x 1080i 29.97 "M2T AVCHD" instead of 1920 x 1080p 29.97 "M2T AVCHD".
You appear to have used Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with the M2T H264 1920 x 1080p24. If you say that your export is 1920 x 1080 29.97, then you would have had to go under the Advanced Button of the p24 preset to customize the preset to 29.97 instead of 24.
But, now for the unexpected under that preset....if you use Frame Rate 24 frames per second, you have progressive settings. But, if you change the Frame Rate to 29.97 under the Advanced Button of the preset, you have interlaced settings. In the latter, note the fields for Upper or Lower for Field Order. That is interlaced video. Interlace video has fields, progressive video does not. And, if you do the export and read the properties of the export using a properties read out program, you confirm interlace and not progressive export. Confirm in project....
Can you use the MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 preset instead?
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

Save motion project preset?

Is there a way to save a custom motion project preset?

hi
open a new project. go to Edit menu-> project properties. From Preset menu choose custom. create as you se fit. You can save this as the default one to open with. although you may have to have the preferences set to welcome screen or create new project to see this.
this is all covered in the manual, and it might give you some more detail

Motion project presets have the wrong framerate

One of our computers has an issue with project presets in Motion. When you start a new Motion project, you have the option of picking from a list of presets for your project. Of these, the last 17 on the list have the incorrect framerate: XDCam HD, EX and HD422, as well as Broadcast HD 1080i50 and 1080i60.
For example: XDCam HD422 1080p24 has a framerate of 29.97, 1080p25 is 23.98 and 1080p30 is 25.
Has anyone else seen this before?

EDIT:
We just tried taking a good preset file from one computer and moving it to the other computer with the bad settings. Opened Motion, the preset was still incorrect. We then opened the file in TextEdit, and it showed the correct framerate.
So something else must be reading the framerate incorrectly.

TutWD_FlightList_Init .project file missing

Hello,
I am trying the TutWD_FlightList_Init tutorial.
I have downloaded the project.
For the first time I could successfully import this project into my workspace , however while creating model i was getting jjava.lang.NullPointerException.
So also when I tried to import this project for the second time into my workspace , while importing it said .project file missing.
Can anyone suggest the possible solutions to resolve the issues I am facing.
Thanks & Regards
Pooja

Hi,
Removing the .metadata folder and restarting NWDS fixed my NWDS as well.
I think you have to downloaded TutWD_FlightList_Init this application in SDN right. May be that application having some problem you can create application in own way. I think you are new to webdynpro JAVA right.

Which Project preset for Canon 5D Mark 2 ?

Living in Europe I use PAL. But I am not sure if my camera (Canon 5D Mark 2) is AVCHD or HDV so I can choose the correct project preset.
Then Full HD 1080i? Or should there be a choice of 1080p for this camera? And finally 5-canal or not?

PRE does not have a 1080p option.
From the specifications (HD 1920 x 1080, MOV (Video: H.264, Sound: Linear PCM) you will need a "AVCHD Full HD 1080i 25" project setting.
I suggest you try with a small clip first to see how good the output is. Note that the Internet has many sob stories about using 5D video footage.
If you don't need to do too much with the file you could try QuickTime Pro - others post here saying that this is a great tool for .MOV files. I think you can also use QuickTime Pro to convert to a more PRE friendly format, perhaps other 'regulars' could comment.
Cheers,
Neale

Only custom project presets.Can you please help me?

Hi!My motion 3 now dosen't show projects presets.I tried unistall and install several times and i can't choose my presets, there only 720x480.Can someone help me please? Thank you so much and sorry my english

Howdy,
Unfortunately, reinstalling from the disc over newer versions (e.g. Motion 3.0 over Motion 3.0.2) damages Motion and Compressor. You'll need to properly remove them and then reinstall. Apple has a support article on it here.

"Final Cut Events/Projects" folders missing

So I upgraded to Mavericks over the weekend and things were going great for a while. I wasn't experiencing any of the known issues that other people were experiencing after the upgrade.
But then I clicked the Movies tab in finder and realized that my "Final Cut Events" and "Final Cut Projects" are missing! The backups folder is still intact, as well as my libraries, but those folder are missing. I've searched thoroughly around my MacBook and cannot locate them.
So I guess I'm wondering: is there away to recreate these folders? I can still access events and projects from within Final Cut Pro but the only way to get to the events or projects is by right-clicking on a library in the Movies tab and selecting the "Show Package Contents" option.
This is my first post on the forum because I am literally puzzled and have spent many hours searching for a solution to no avail. Any and all help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Mark, thanks for lending a helping hand. Truthfully, I don't rememeber that option when I upgraded. There was nothing too important in the folders, as I store the larger projects on my Time Capsule and try to delete old events as I complete the projects. However, when I now import footage, the events are only created in the designated FC library. Those folders don't exist on my computer anymore and they are not in the trash. Is there a way to recreate the folders or did I completely ruin FC? Thanks again for your help, it means a lot.

Opening a PE7 project in PE9

Opening a PE7 project in PE9
When I try to open a project in PE9 that is in PE7 format, the video in the time line appears with the red line indicating the need to render the whole piece. But when I try to render either by hitting return or the Timeline>Reader Work Area command, the render window appears very shortly, but nothing happens.
Do I have to do some pre-treatment of the PE7 files so they will be excepted in PE9 form or down load a fix?

Check the info in this thread:
"This project contained a sequence that could not be opened".

Project Preset to use with m2t files in CS4

I capture HD video from my Sony HDR-HC9 using the Sony capture utility. The Sony capture utility can divide the capture into datestamp clips, while Premiere Capture just does it as one file (If I am wrong about this please let me know).
I want to know what project preset I should use with these files. I want to edit HD at the best fidelity possible since I want to be able to export to various media types from DV mpg (for my cable access shows), youtube, DVD, and blue ray.
I just bought a Sony VPC-F1190X with Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 installed. So far it works beautifully with the m2t files with the HDV 1080i30(60i) preset or with the ACH-I 100 1080i60.

You question has been answered in the other thread.

Custom Project presets, PE 10

I'm using PE 10 on Mac OSX. I'd like to create a custom project preset, as suggested in this thread, for use with my GoPro HD.
The default GoPro HD footage is 1280x960, progressive scan.
I can't locate any of the PE preset files in the finder to modify them myself.

Yes, thank you Steve, I did see that discussion. Within that thread,Goproski found a way to create a new presets file using an one of the exisiting presets. He created a 1280 x 960 preset. He even gave the directory location of the presets files. I have a Mac, and I'm unable to find those same (or similar) files.
I did run the original footage through Cineform and then try to edit in PE10. This was much better than trying to edit the orginal GoPro footage, but still very 'jittery'.
Thanks again.
Brian
